2022 NFL draft: Day 2 grades for Vikings

Minnesota Vikings general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah hasn’t disappointed as far as his ability to work the draft board and stockpile picks.

If only he managed to do so without trading with division rivals in the process.

The Vikings have guaranteed they’ll be seeing Jameson Williams with the Detroit Lions and Christian Watson with the Green Bay Packers due to trades they made with those respective teams.

For the most part, they came away with the players they wanted on day two, but like the Williams trade on Thursday, their decision to do business with a rival could come back to haunt them in the form of Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers heaving up throws to Watson.

But then again, there’s also the possibility that the moves made by the Vikings end up offsetting anything their rivals have done in the 2022 NFL draft.

Here are the day two grades.
